Agreed. I was joking about camouflage, of course.

Construction design and planning are important security considerations for the homes of civilians, too. Granted, they won’t be the same considerations, but they are worth much thought. Home invaders, for example, can be inhibited by many things before actually trying to break in to a home. Firearms and liability dogs (dangerous animals) get too much attention, IMO.

Fences, lighting, recording devices (including visual), alarms (including good dogs), security of records (remote servers for video files), obstacles (safe obstacles—not liability obstacles), directions of visibility, approaches, materials, elevations and many other things are more important. The list is virtually endless.

I believe that having a dog is still the #1 crime deterent. Now you don’t have to have a “liability” dog, a dog that is medium size and that barks at everything that gets anywhere near the fence works for us.
